lyrics

I am a skeleton I’m waiting for the day I get my body back
With all the other things they took away
I can’t forget you ‘cuz you’re gone or right you ‘cuz you’re wrong
And waiting here for you will be the death of us all

Our childhoods went off and left us to die
I beg your pardon baby-girl go find another guy to keep you warm tonight
It just ain’t right
To be the devil in the dark and be so perfect in the light

But we’re millennials babe
We run around pretending like we’re not insane
But underneath the skin you know we’re all the same
We're brainwashed and drugged up
And nobody cares what we say

CHORUS:
My generation scourge of the nation
Lift up your voices and open your eyes
They hate our guts but that’s just as well
We’ll just keep on giving them hell
Giving them hell

Because we’ve got nothing better to do

Put it in your mouth swallow it down
Everybody’s doing it especially now
Because the pharmacist said take two before bed
And then they wonder why we’re all walking around like we’re dead

We’re selfish and shallow and so insecure
Everybody on the Interned trying to score
Another girlfriend another boyfriend
Another see you later baby I don’t care anymore

CHORUS

Don’t look too hard into my heart
This life will just tear you apart

CHORUS
